Hi everyone I'm travelling to Perth for a month Jan 2025 from uk, I know the area well having lived there,I've always windsurfed when back but I now only windfoil, I have a couple of question can I get away with only bringing one foil board a Severne Alien 155 or do I need the Alien 120 with me too ? I will foil on coast a bit if ribbon weed not too bad and on the Swan river.
Thanks Steve??????

I would dare to say you'll be fine with the one (155) board, but have you considered bringing another size wing to cover more wind range that way?

I'd say a smaller circa 100-120L board is well suited to the Perth Coastal Foiling conditions. But this does depend on your size, sails and style of riding. I have a Slingshot Wizard 114L that suits me perfectly at 90kg with sub 5metre sails. It doesn't get much use by me so if you wanna borrow it for a session or rent for a week/month then hit me up. Located in Scarborough. More Info on foilseeker.com

Hi sorry for delay in replying I thought a reply came in to message box, my friend in Perth told me there was a reply, I think your right 155 will good and will bring full set of wings 475 to 930 will do the job, the bigger board width is better for foil ride height control, hoping to see a few more wind foilers there in January ????

Hi sorry for delay in responding I was looking in wrong place for posts thanks for the offer, I'm going to bring my bigger foil board now, I've had a wizard a 130 but now on higher aspect foils so not suitable for a that type of board, thanks for the offer though ??????
